It's a hard call for service providers. Sort of catch-22. They have to support old ciphers because most of their possible customers are running old software or operating systems that don't support newer ciphers. So to make money they're effectively forced to take a more insecure position. They can care deeply about customer security, while effectively being forced to offer only the most secure that their customers will support, and having to accept that ugly compromise as a necessity of remaining in business.
- illumen 11y agoSetting up a proxy for those customers is possible. Different end points for those customers is possible. Reverse proxy is not such a hard setup task these days. But really it's about everyone just being human, and therefore crap at these things. Once security 'products' realise this, and cope well with people being rubbish at their jobs, then those products will make a lot of money... If only the people measuring ROI were also not rubbish at their jobs... ;)
